Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
It's decreasing by 3 each time, so the next number in the sequence would be 6 - 3, which is 3.
Since we’re trying to find minutes, concert all known information to minutes
1 hr 15 mins = 75 mins
1 hr 30 mins = 90 mins
Next, calculate how many total minutes Gage has skated in the first 8 days
75(5) + 90(3) = 645 mins
Create an equation to find the average of Gage’s minutes of skating. Add up all the minutes and divide by the total amount of days and set equal to 85, the average we are trying to get.
(645 mins + x mins)/9 days = 85
Solve for x
645 + x = 765
x = 120
So, in order to have an average of an 85 minute skate time, Gage would need to skate 120 minutes on the ninth day.
The 7 miles and 24 miles make up two "legs" of a right triangle.
The third side (or hypotenuse) is the distance between the towns.
distance^2 = 7^2 + 24^2
distance^2 = 49 + 576
distance^2 = 625
distance = square root of 625 or 25
Answer: y = 21x
Step-by-step explanation:
y in this expression represents the total amount of money, in dollars, the students raise from selling x flowerpots.
21 is the price of each flower pot.
x is the number of flower pots sold.
If for instance, they sold 30 flower pots, y(total amount in dollars) would be;
= 21x
= 21 * 30
= $630
